NEW BEGINNINGS

[makenaide]

Spring is here and newest crop of students have finally arrived at Crux Academy and Nebulae Institute. Both campuses are abuzz with activity as first years filter in, some confused, others excited and honored to be attending such a prestigious institution. Class assignments would be found on the large bulletin board toward the front of campus, and while some friends may find themselves once again sharing the same class, others will be given the opportunity to nurture new relationships with future friends (or enemies).

Classes for the first day will be short, punctuated by a welcoming ceremony led by each school's respective headmaster and headmistress, as well as an upperclassman that has some significance to the rest of the student body. Students are then permitted to take the rest of the day for themselves, to get acclimated to the campus as well as Galactica, should they so choose. Why not explore the school? Take a trip into the city? Or perhaps get to know your dorm mate, classmates or fellow faculty members? Or perhaps, if you are that sort of person, terrorize the town? The choice is yours.

school campus!

[Welcoming new students is part of the job for an older student. Mami doesn't mind. It's... better than her previous school. She doesn't have to hide who she is here. It makes her less lonely.]

[These are lies, Mami is always lonely]

[So she notices the pouting. Mami comes to a stop as she sees her pouting through the hallways, then she approaches slowly. Mami raises a hand and flashes that bright, pleasant smile.]

Hello, there. It looks like this is your first day.

[friendshiprocks]

[ That bright smile helps a little bit. Hime stops being a grumpy guts for a moment when she sees Mami's small smile and can't help but give the upperclassman a small smile of her own. ]

It is. I didn't really want to be here, but I got shoved here anyway. [ a pause, before. ] Hey, do you know if there's a way to request somebody as a student or something like that?

[ she's an upperclassman, she might know this. Because if there's a way that Hime can shove an invite on Megumi, Yuko, and Iona, you bet your ass she's gonna do so. ]

[wishingalone]

Ah, yes. Sometimes, the admissions process has less to do with our wishes and more to do with what others think is best for us. But... I wouldn't write it off yet.

[She winks. Then, her expression becomes a little more serious. She can guess where this might go; she's heard and wondered similar. And she has wanted Madoka, Sayaka, and Kyouko here herself.]

[...not so much Homura though.]

You can suggest it to the administration, but they may not be able to. A friend of yours, perhaps?

[friendshiprocks]

Yeah. Her name's Megumi and she's my best friend back home.

[ Hime can't help it. She gets a little sad just thinking about Megimi. It's been less than a day and she misses the other girl so much already. ]

[wishingalone]

[...ah. She knows this feeling. Mami hesitates, then she nods her head.]

I'm sorry. She may yet appear, so don't lose hope. But... think of what Megumi would say, if she was here, perhaps.

She would want you to make the best of things, wouldn't she?
